Episode IV DVD: From Script to Screen
September 24, 2004

What does an alien filled cantina look like on paper? How much does a movie change when it is translated from a typed page to a cinematic classic? Find out through a bonus commentary available only at dvd.starwars.com.

Thanks to software from Interactual, the power of DVD and the Internet are combined to provide viewers with a text-based commentary for their Episode IV DVD. If you have a PC DVD-ROM with web access, visit dvd.starwars.com to watch A New Hope while reading the shooting script of Star Wars: From the Adventures of Luke Starkiller by George Lucas.

The screenplay has been edited for sequence, so that it properly aligns with your DVD, but the original dialogue and descriptions remain. You'll discover what lines or characters underwent changes, or how something as visually dynamic as the attack on the Death Star was first described. Some of the text is lengthy, so be ready with the pause button to take it all in.

And this is just the start of the extended material for the newly released Star Wars Trilogy. In the coming months, Script to Screen commentaries for The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi will be posted, as well as the popular trivia-laden Depth Commentaries. For those with Episodes I and II on DVD, the Script to Screen and Depth Commentaries are also currently online.
